A few weeks ago we upgraded our fish tank. Partly from necessity (imagine live fish as a table decoration at a wedding with nowhere to go once the party is over – yep. 60 of ’em. That’s how we got more fish – though not all 60!) and partly because it’s an addicting little hobby. Not that any of you would know anything about addiciting hobbies. No.
At any rate, Kira loves it. She watches the fish far more than our cats do.
It’s a really good thing we upsized tanks because this little one is needed:
After days on end of checking to see if the babies were there, I went to feed the pregnant lady fish at the end of my lunch break on Friday and what the?! Babies! Tonnes of them. Well 27 is the most I have been able to count – those little things can move.
If they all make it – and I hope they do – I’ll be starting an adoption program!
On the fibrey end, look what else arrived on Friday!
The 2nd installation of the 7 Deadly Spins. There is a handmade soap in this package that is sublime. When I tore open the info envelope I was confused. Wrath? I looked at the package again – hmmmm…chocolate, pale blue super soft cotton, bath salts, candle…Wrath?
They went with wrath’s oppposite – calm, peace. And it really worked. I’d been envisioning some blood reds, bruised purple-blue-yellow, explosive treats (not really explosive, more like Pop Rocks) but…I couldnt’ be disappointed the yarn is so soft and smells like the heavenly soap. And there’s chammomile tea and a candle. Deep breath. Release.
This reminded me that I hadn’t posted my 1st installation: Gluttony!
Great little package, just packed with extra goodies. I especially enjoyed the gourmet jelly beans. I’ve yet to use the yarn, 4 skeins of brightly coloured sock yarn meant to blend together in a gradient-rainbowy fashion, but that’s hardly surprising given the low number of FO’s on this blog!
That is a lot of babies! Enjoy all your gifts!
I just posted about my obsession with fish, too. It’s a great hobby for sure!
